Maboroshi 'Mystery' Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare Sushi Rice

    In a small bowl, mix rice vinegar, sugar, and salt until dissolved. Gently fold this mixture into the cooked rice. Allow to cool to room temperature.

  2. 2

    Prepare Fillings

    Slice the fresh tuna, avocado, and cucumber into thin strips. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Assemble Sushi Rolls

    Lay a nori sheet on a bamboo sushi mat. Wet your hands with water to prevent sticking, then spread a thin layer of sushi rice over the nori, leaving a small border at the top. Arrange strips of tuna, avocado, and cucumber along the bottom edge of the rice. Roll the sushi tightly from the bottom, using the mat to help shape it. Seal the edge with a little water.

  4. 4

    Slice and Serve

    Using a sharp knife, slice the roll into bite-sized pieces. Serve with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger on the side.
